Of course, posts like that are immediately dismissed by some because the writers have personal connections to Hillary.

As if having a personal connection to someone deprives one of having an informed opinion about that person, LOL. To me, the fact that so many with personal connections to or working relationships with Hillary think so highly of her works in her favor. Who else's judgment should we trust? A person on the street whose only information comes from Fox News? After all, when one looks to hire a person for a position, which references does one trust? Those from people who know the person and her work or those from people who don't?

Granted that one usually requests references from persons who generally like and respect one's work rather than from detractors, the fact that ALL Dem Senators who have endorsed a candidate so far have endorsed Hillary and NONE have endorsed Bernie speaks volumes about their working relationships with both candidates. But that's JMO.
